MKTG Charlotte’s Emily Spiegel, a member of the Route 500 leadership development program, was also chosen to participate in Route to Good, where each participant is paired with someone else from within DAN and then paired with an NGB who is part of Global Giving. Emily and Brooke Bowhay, from Carat LA, were paired with PSYDEH, which empowers indigenous women in rural Mexico.

Emily Spiegel from MKTG And Brooke Bowhay from Carat Visiting PSYDEH in Mexico

The first assignment was to complete a field visit – to meet with the NGO in person and see firsthand the work they are doing. From there it is up to each team to determine a ‘project’ to work with the partner on to assist them in some way. The goal is to find an area where they need help and where DAN, and the individual participants, are uniquely suited to assist. Check out THIS great article and video recapping their visit that PSYDEH put together and please consider donating to this great cause here!!
